Nursing informatics has become increasingly established, essential and valued as a global nursing specialty over the last several decades. Nurse informaticists use clinical and technical skills to transform data into needed information; leverage technologies to improve health, safety, quality and outcomes; and promote health equity for people and populations.
Since 2004, HIMSS has surveyed the global nursing informatics community every three years to understand informatics nurses’ roles, responsibilities and value. This survey captures the experience and background of nursing informatics professionals while identifying changes that have occurred in the profession over the past 18 years. This document is a salary and benefit information resource for the nursing informatics workforce.
This year’s survey was sponsored by Fresenius Kabi.
